In preparation to get my VCP 6 certification, I've purchased this official study guide written by VMware gurus themselves. Suffice it to say, I feel like it's a bit of a ripoff. I had a feeling of what the contents would be like but the sad truth is, there's not much study guides in the market to prepare for this exam specifically. Therefore, I had to take a chance and good news is that at least my company will reimburse me for the purchase!A big issue with this book is that there is a whole lot of spelling errors! And I mean very obvious errors. I read a lot of technical whitepapers and books and I have never in my life read an "official" technical materials book with this much spelling errors in it.The second issue and one that I have the biggest gripe with is that a lot of the content seems to be copied and pasted from VMware's official Vsphere 6 Documentation website. Like literally, there are parts where word for word it looks exactly the same from the website counterpart. In the VMware's official documentation website, they actually have very good materials that cover all aspects of the exam objectives that you can download in PDF or eBook format. The problem is that it's not organized. The advantage with this study guide is that the authors presented the information so that they all align with the exam objectives so it gives you a sense of what you need to study and what objectives you need to work on if you are weak in that area.
